Book excerpt: As a pregnant Kapukini stands on a precipice at the edge of an ancient volcano in the middle of the pacific where the sky meets the sea, she faces the winds of an uncertain future. With her hands resting on her swollen belly, she decides to comfort her child by sharing the story of their family, how they came to be, and the love that is the roots of this blossom. While Kapukini is present with her unborn child for this one last eternal moment, the tale of an ancient Hawaiian chief’s family lineage unfolds, depicting a forbidden royal romance. Within three generations of love stories creatively retold, the myth about the origin of the native Naupaka flower comes to life as Kapukini returns to ancient Hawaii where gods slide down rainbows to find beautiful maidens, men battle sharks to prove their devotion, women dance hula to share stories and passions, and lovers send kisses on the moonlight to communicate their affections. Naupaka: A Hawaiian Love Story shares fantastical tales about Hawaiian culture, love, family, courage, compassion, adventure, loyalty, mystical realms, and above all, aloha.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a significant update to the highly influential text People and Cultures of Hawaii: A Psychocultural Profile. Since its publication in 1980, the immigrant groups it discusses in depth have matured and new ones have been added to the mix. The present work tracks the course of these changes over the past twenty years, constructing a historical understanding of each group as it evolved from race to ethnicity to culture. Individual chapters begin with an overview of one of fifteen groups. Following the development of its unique ethnocultural identity, distinctive character traits such as temperament and emotional expression are explored—as well as ethnic stereotypes. Also discussed are modifications to the group’s ethnocultural identity over time and generational change—which traits may have changed over generations and which are more hardwired or enduring. An important feature of each chapter is the focus on the group’s family social structure, generational and gender roles, power distribution, and central values and life goals. Readers will also find a description of the group’s own internal social class structure, social and political strategies, and occupational and educational patterns. Finally, contributors consider how a particular ethnic group has blended into Hawai‘i’s culturally sensitive society. People and Cultures of Hawai‘i: The Evolution of Culture and Ethnicity will, like its predecessor, fill an important niche in understanding the history of different ethnic groups in Hawai‘i.
